i was just watching Globel BC tv and they had news of the ABBOTSFORD BC air show, they showed a converted school bus going down the run way and it was really smoking with lots of flame coming out the back. it was powered with a jet engine and has a top speed of over 600 K or over 400 m/h. so all you people that want to repower to have a fast bus sure have a long way to go to keep up to this bus. just think of how nice it would be to be able to keep tailgaters way way back. when it went down the runway it was as wast as a jet plane. |

Over the last 20 years there have been several of these "Jet-Powered" Schoolies plying the Drag Strips of North America. They certainly get the crowds & the KIDS attention ! |
